Baht volatility worries
labor-intensive exporters
The government should attempt to closely supervise the baht to curb its volatility; otherwise the export of labor-intensive products, including textiles, would be adversely affected, according to an industry executive. Suchart Chandranakaraj, President of the Association of Thai Garment Industry, said that the textile export grew around 8-9% in the first seven months of this year and that it was projected that the export of the product would enjoy 6-7% growth for the whole year since the global economic direction had improved. He added that the competitiveness of exporters had been enhanced since the government began assisting them in seeking new export destinations. |
